From 9/20 to 10/23 we used an average of 31.4 kWh/day (72% over winter average). Now, mind you, the house is a lot bigger has more things going on. Instead of 1,350 sq. ft., itâs about 3,200 sq. ft. Thereâs 180 watts of light bulbs that are on from dusk to dawn (roughly 2 kWh/day).ut the âwinterâ (non-summer) power is considerably higher. So far, the townhouse seems to consistently use 15 kWh/day more than our old apartment â thatâs 80% more power. Electricity seems to be costing about 25 cents per kWh, so thatâs less then $4/day, or about $115/month additional.
The medications prescribed for treating PTSD symptoms act upon neurotransmitters related to the fear and anxiety circuitry of the brain including serotonin, norepinephrine, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), excitatory amino acids such as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), and dopamine, among many others.
Many of the medications used to treat serious PTSD symptoms such as anxiety, depression, flashbacks and insomnia come with risky side effects, especially when combined with one another. One of the most dangerous is an increase in suicidal thinking. There is another drug not prescribed by any VA doctor anywhere.
